    Default omega spare wheel/vectra space saver

    Would any one know if a Omega spare wheel will fit on the car and in the spare wheel compartment with the space saver and all the stuff with it out, this is the first car I've ever had with a space saver and think they are cr#p. Cheers ajn

    I would have thought the offset would have been wrong, seeing that an Omega is rear wheel drive.

    16'' omega alloys will not fit over the 314mm front brakes unless they are the IRMSCHER SOFT STARS

    Sorry its the spare steel wheel I mean from the omega I want to swap instead of the space saver that comes with the vectra, I have 2 spare steel omega wheels with new tyres and would prefer to have a full size wheel and tyre as a spare. ajn

    omega steel wheel in what size ?? my point was that if you have a 16'' steel spare and 314mm front brakes it wont fit over them as the offset is different to the vectra's so catches the bigger brakes, if you have normal 285mm front brakes the 16'' wheel will fit weather steel or alloy, 15'' steel wheel would be pushing thing's i think, i have a 16'' vectra steel wheel as a full sized spare instead of the space saver
